​The Spanish engineering company ‘CT Ingenieros’ has been selected by Navantia to participate in the development of the logistic ships of the Australian Navy which are being built in Ferrol.

‘CT Ingenieros’, which leads a consortium with other engineering companies, will participate in the development of the ‘Australian Shipbuilding Detail and Production Engineering’ (Australian Auxiliary Oil Replenishment (AAOR).

These vessels, based on the BAC Cantabria built by Navantia for the Spanish Armada in 2010, act as logistical support for the rest of the fleet and allow the supply of fuel, armament, supplies and materials.

The important presence of Navantia in Australia includes, in addition to logistical vessels, the construction of two amphibious vessels (LHD), three destroyers (DDG) and twelve landing crafts (LLC), as well as its participation in the program for the construction of Nine frigates.
